Setting Up CM Company Parameters

CM Company Parameters controls how Cash Management posts to the general ledger and what audit options are available.

Before you start

• The HQ company must exist in Vista and have a valid GL company code before you configure CM Company Parameters.
• Know the GL company and journal used for cash activity.
• Decide the GL interface level (Detail is recommended).

Steps

1. Open CM Company Parameters.
2. Select the GL company.
3. Choose the journal for cash transactions.
4. Set GL interface level to Detail unless you have a specific reason not to.
5. Enable audit options so changes are tracked.
6. Strongly recommended for go-live: check Allow changes to statement beginning balance so you can set the opening balance for the first statement(s). Turn this OFF once live processing starts.
7. Check Attached batch reports if you want posted-batch audit attachments.

Notes

• Changing the GL interface level affects future transactions only.
• Keep audit options on for reconciliation and support research.
• During some CM bring-live reconciliation procedures, GL interface level may be temporarily set to No Update to prevent posting while outstanding items are loaded, then switched to the live level (Detail) with a journal once reconciliation is complete.
